IntroductionThis paper examines the impact of transfer learning and CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization) optimization on the classification of medical images, specifically brain images.MethodsFour different setups were tested: normal images without data augmentation, normal images with data augmentation, CLAHE-processed images without data augmentation, and CLAHE-processed images with data Read More

BackgroundExtrahepatic Common Bile Duct Obstruction (EHBDO) is a serious condition that requires accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a widely used noninvasive imaging technique for visualizing bile ducts, but its interpretation can be complex.ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop a deep learning-based classification model that integrates MRCP im Read More

PurposeThis study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of spectral dual-energy detector computed tomography (SDCT) and its associated parameters in diagnosing acute pulmonary embolism (APE).MethodsRetrospective analysis of imaging data from 86 APE-diagnosed patients using SDCT was conducted. Virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) at 40, 70, and 100 KeV, Iodine concentration (IC) maps, Electron Cloud Dens Read More

Background:Laparoscopically Harvested Pedicled Omental Flap (LHPOF) has become a viable option for breast reconstruction due to advancements in minimally invasive techniques, offering benefits like reduced postoperative pain and minimal scarring.Case Presentation:This study examines the imaging findings in eight patients who underwent breast reconstruction using a LHPOF. Imaging modalities, including mammography, ult Read More
